Enjoyable acrobatic segments strewn throughout the whole game

Impressive visuals that never let up no matter what's on screen
Enjoyable acrobatic segments strewn throughout the whole game, Good thought mongering environmental puzzles, Impressive visuals that never let up no matter what's on screen
Not enough puzzles, Too short with little replay value, Run of the mill combat that barely ever excites
The Forgotten Sands hints at something special, only to lose itself in mediocrity. The middle third is worth playing; the rest is lazy, forgettable nonsense that is much worse than the seven-year-old Sands Of Time. 7.2/10Print this pageUser reviews (0)...

Platforming sections have lots of thrilling moments, New abilities spice up the standard jumping action, Clever puzzles require careful thought to complete, The prince's narration adds personality to the story.
Combat is shallow and way too easy, Camera restrictions makes certain sections difficult to navigate, Early portions are too familiar.
